4.0 out of 5 stars disturbing yet understated nightmares, May 1 2003
By 
Heti's series of short stories were incredibly surreal yet wholly believable.The undercurrent running throughout is the same one you would expirence in a nightmare where nothing blood-and-guts horrible occurs, but you feel a building sense of or horror anyway. It is disquieting, unsettling, sometimes strangely funny, and I was hooked. For some reason parts of the book reminded me of a Dali painting. This is also one of the few books I've seen who's cover is just as innovative as the stories themselves.

4.0 out of 5 stars Heti is the real deal, April 1 2003

the OilCan has to give it up for McSweeney's. This collection will wake you out of your obviously humdrum life. The stories are fantastic and will stay with you long after the reading process is done. O Canada

5.0 out of 5 stars What a find!, April 6 2007

This review is from: The Middle Stories (Paperback)
I really enjoyed these short stories. Very moving, thought provoking, and insightful. This book will keep you thinking. It visualizes scenes from modern life with superb finesse.

It is a relatively quick read but also it is thrill to read, so I suggest you pace it out, and enjoy it with a cup of tea and some chocolate. Some of the stories are mildly depressing, but that is counterbalanced by the enthusiasm of the writer.
